The Hornady 480 Powder Charge Bushing is a precision reloading component designed for handloaders who demand consistency in their ammunition production. This bushing works as part of a powder measure system to help you throw uniform powder charges, shot after shot — a critical foundation for tight shot groups and reliable performance whether you're loading for hunting, competition, or practice at the range.
Hornady powder bushings are engineered to precise tolerances so that each charge dropped is as close as possible to your target weight. When you're fine-tuning loads for a new rifle or working up a proven hunting round, that consistency matters. The 480 bushing integrates into compatible Hornady powder measure systems, letting you swap bushings to adjust charge volume without breaking down your entire setup.
If you're already running Hornady reloading gear, adding the right powder bushing to your component cabinet means you can load multiple cartridges or adjust for different powders without unnecessary downtime. It's a small but essential piece of the precision reloading puzzle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a powder charge bushing used for?
A powder bushing meters a specific volume of powder into a cartridge case when used with a compatible powder measure. Different bushings are designed for different charge volumes, allowing you to load various cartridges or powders with the same measure without recalibration.
What Hornady powder measures is the 480 bushing compatible with?
The 480 bushing is designed to work with Hornady powder measure systems that accept interchangeable bushings. Check your measure's documentation to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Do I need multiple bushings?
Many handloaders keep several bushings on hand so they can load different cartridges or powders without swapping bushings in and out of their measure. A bushing for each common load simplifies your workflow and reduces setup time.
